 Lego is a great toy for 9 year old boys. They are at the age when they are able to work on putting together a lego construction on their own. Reading and following instructions are great for literacy skills. Once they have finished putting together the set they can play with their construction. There are lots of different themed lego sets and 9 year old boys may like Star Wars themed lego. To challenge a 9 year old look for more complex lego sets.

Many 9 year old boys love learning about outer space and are fascinated by the planets and stars. There are some great toys, games and gifts with the theme of the solar system available.

I really like the 3D solar system kit. 9 year old boys get to make a solar system to hang from their bedroom. Snap the planets together, paint them with normal and glow in the dark paint and use the invisible string to put the mobile together and hang it from the ceiling. A great accomplishment to hang from the ceiling once the mobile is finished.

Or what about buying the night edition version of monopoly. This is great educationally, not only do they learn about money, buying and selling and playing with others they learn about parts of the universe too.

A solar system projecter will project images of the Sun, planets and stars onto the bedroom wall. The one featured opposite has an interactive audio tour with 1000 facts and quiz questions about size, temperature, gravity, mass, distance and other general facts in the solar system.

Finally what about a solar system puzzle ball. The one featured contains 8 puzzle balls and also comes with a plastic base stand for each planet, fishing line for hanging, informational booklet and poster.

9 year old boys still love cars especially remote control ones. The Street Troopers Mobilized Attack Vehicle PT-808 is the perfect remote control car for a 9 year old. Race it around and with the flick of a switch it transforms into a robot that will shoot missiles at the enemy. Great fun and the car has good reveiws too.

A similar vehicle with a currently amazing prize on Amazon is the Mattel Triclops Radio Control Vehicle. It's currently on sale at $27.75 when the list price is $109.99! It's a remote-controlled vehicle which transforms into disc-shooting mutant with push of a button. It also features omni-directional movement, pincher claws, laser sighting, and a rapid-fire disc shooter which is extremely powerful. The toys is very durable and also has some good reviews. Well worth checking out.

This is a fascinating toy that 9 year old boys and friends and family are sure to love. You think of something and the toy asks you 20 questions. You answer yes or no by pressing the buttons. After 20 questions the machine will tell you what you're thinking of. If it guesses correctly it wins, if not you win. Can you beat the machine? The reviews on Amazon are really good and it's currently only $7.50 which sounds like value for money for hours of fun.

9 year old boys who love pretend play will love pretending to be spies with these wild planet spy gear goggles.They enable you to see in the dark, so you have night vision for secret missions in the dark.

Many 9 year old boys love Star Wars and themed toys in this area will be a huge hit.

The Star Wars ultimate light saber has 20 parts so you can make your own custom made light saber. There are 1000 different combinations. Once you've had fun putting it together, enjoy being your favorite Star Wars character.

 9 year old boys and their brothers, sisters, friends (even Mum and Dad) will love playing Nerf Wars with Nerf guns. The Nerf Dart Tag Hyperfire Deluxe 2 Player Blaster Set featured opposite contains all you need to play Nerf Wars.

There are 2 guns which you can fill with up to 10 foam darts. Put on the adjustable scoring vest and take aim at your opponent. The darts are soft and won't damage furniture or people. When you've hit you're opponent the dart sticks to the vest so they'll be no arguments as to whether you've been hit or not.

Great fun. Can be played indoors or outdoors. If played outdoors it will get boys running around burning off all their excess energy.
